Sky Broadband shield on individual devices
Hi Is it possible to put sky broadband shield on individual devices rather than a blanket on or off?
I just want to have it on the kids devices so that me and my wife can browse unresticted.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Unfortunately that's not possible: Shield is fairly crude DNS filtering applied at the connection level and so applies to all the devices at the address.

Thanks @TimmyBGood
Can you recommend any 3rd party apps that I could put on sons iPad that will effectively filter out adult content?
Thank you
